Sharing the love with WinFE

By Brett Shavers
May 9, 2011

There have been numerous presentations showing how to build and use a WinFE boot disc around the world.  Most recently I see that IACIS has given a demo this year along with several HTCIA Chapters and a DOD conference as well.  A write up of Imaging a MacBook by Sean Morrissey shows just how easy WinFE is to use on a MacBook based on one demo at IACIS.

As simple as it is to use, it has become even easier to build using WinBuilder.  Probably the most significant difference when using WinBuilder rather than building via WAIK and the command line is the numerous options that can be automatically added, particularly in that of supporting more software able to run on WinFE.

Many examiners have already tried to build and use WinFE, but I know there are a few of you out there that just haven’t sat down to give it a whirl.   If you can speak to anyone that uses WinFE, they will each tell you that it is well worth it!

The next coolest thing to be added to WinFE is Colin Ramsden’s GUI currently being finalized.   Say goodbye to the DiskPart command line!
